IcingDeath comments

This type of stuff was news to me when it first started happening almost 2 decades ago. Now it is so common that I don't even flinch one bit when I read this stuff.

Have to agree with some posters here. Yahoo news is the absolute worse when it comes to racist comments. Even if a black person is in the news because he/she found the cure for cancer, you had best believe that someone will stink of the place with all sorts of racial BS.

The book of Eli was really good. Also looking forward to Iron Man 2, Clash of the Titans, and A-Team. Gotta love Liam Neeson.

OH sure. I believe people should have the right to say whatever they wanna say and that the government should enact no laws that hinder that right. However, do be prepared to deal with the consequences of some of the things that fly out of your mouth. Much more so if you have loose lips and a low will power. I tell you now, I will never try to take that right from someone, but I will punch someone square in the nose if they are just being down right disrespectful.

Its Definitely the coca cola icon. I remember reading something about this not to long ago. Believe it or not, the second most recognized symbol on the planet is the Batman logo....I love it :)

Yeah, it is kinda like the South's dirty little secret. It provokes the same reaction as the kid who got caught with his hand in the cookie jar before dinner. I remember reading a book once that was about Louisiana oddly enough. It stated that every well off White man in the old days was pretty much expected to have a mistress, and that mistress was pretty much expected to be black or a mulatto.

Go figure though. I dont know whats worse; The fact that these people were turned away and probably made to feel like crap, or the fact that this guy honestly believes that what he is doing is the lesser of two evils.

The quote in this article that reads “Perhaps he’s worried the kids will grow up and be president” was the exact thing that crossed my mind when I first read this article. WTF? Are we in the 21st century or what? Didn't realize this was still the 1860s.

Lord, I just had to laugh my ass off when I saw this. I know it isnt supposed to be funny but damn, how pathetic can one guy be.

Damn, another kid walloped by a train? Where are the parents?

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!! America unified and homogenous? that is the funniest thing I have heard in a while.

Rush is an idiot. Hasn't this fool died already from Kidney failure or overdosing on Big Macs and large fries?

Yeah, they got the guy this morning. Looks like someone called it right though. Disgruntled White guy with yellow fever who probably got rejected. The guy looks like a total tool.

It turned into a race war because its America. Anytime a black someone does something to someone white and vice versa, regardless of the circumstances, it turns into a race war on popular forums and websites like youtube. This is basically what I was talking about earlier. This country has some serious social issues that are just eating away at it under the surface.

With all that said though, Kanye is still a friggin idiot. Most famous black celebrities have already come forth exclaiming their shock and disgust at this idiots lack of class and constant craving for attention. This guy needs to get gone fast.

God. Was that really necessary Kanye? Seriously? Not only did you behave like a total a-hole, but you have also given the closet racists another thing to rave about on their forums. What a way to help your people Kanye. Bravo....Chump!!

Damn....

The Question hit the nail on the head. That type of stuff does work in small nations with small populations. The US, however is the third most populous nation on the planet. 300 million and growing rapidly. The US's entire system is gonna have to be completely torn down and built back up again to fit its needs.

Like him or not, he looks good for a 54 year old. Hell, Johnny Depp looks good for a 46 year old. Guess that's hollywood for ya.

Death of a Legend Indeed. When a few of my buddies were starting out playing the guitar, It was always the hardest choice picking between the Stratocaster and the Les Paul. This guy, like BB king, didnt let old age stop him from doing it up on his guitar. Its a shame that many my age dont know the name of such a legend.

Hey, i never said the guy was perfect. I am just saying that he probably never needed any sort of affirmative action to get to where he is. I don't care how much affirmative action exists in the US, but no college is gonna just give someone the title of Suma Kum Laude just because they are of a different skin color. Especially not one so prestigious as the one he went to school at. You gotta work your bum off to get that on top of being an exception person.

I was just gonna say something along those lines. I mean, the guy is a Certified Genius. Even if he did benefit from Affirmative Action at some point earlier on, I am sure he could have done just as well without it.

Some of you really need to take a criminal justice class to see that America's crime rate as it relates to race is a little more complex than group A commits more crime than group B. The Black population crime statistics indicate that Black crime rate is not proportionate to their population. If you take the two populations and compare them side by side, it is pretty plain to see that a Black man is more likely to go to jail than a white one. This doesn't necessarily mean that the majority of the crime in the US is committed by black people. 20% of the black population committing crimes is not the same as 8% of the White population commiting crimes.

Boy, amazing how one tiny altercation stirs up the proverbial "racial shitstorm" in the US. On the one hand, the officer was just doing his job. I have cops in my family and the amount of BS they have to deal with on a daily basis is unbelievable. ON the other hand, I completely understand how Mr. Gates is probably feeling about this.

YUM YUM YUM!!

As a mixed Race child of a black man and an Asian woman, I am wondering why the hell this is considered news. This isn't anything new and is not even news worthy might I add. Had he shown some I.D., or better yet not forgotten his keys, this could have been avoided. On the other hand, I understand perfectly why he was probably tired of having to show ID in his own neighbor hood.

Seems that way flatearther. Everyone has a few skeletons in their closet. For the most part, Mcnair was a very nice, approachable, stand-up role-model type of guy from what i remember a few years back. Even with this adultery thing, I seriously dont believe that he needed to be killed. Especially in such a fashion. He has my sympathy, but at the same time, He did make his bed.

Yeah. Princess Diana's funeral was a pretty big spectacle as well. I remember it well. I was only in the 7th grade when she died, but i do remember them stopping class for us to watch the funeral on a tape or something.

Two to the head and two to the chest....it took them damn near 2 days to figure out that this guy didn't off himself. Brilliant, just brilliant!

This is likely to be a media circus.

Why would we wanna go back to Asia again when the olympics were just held in China? I say Brazil should get it.

Barley a blip? I am confused. When did a 20x platinum album qualify as "barley a blip"?
